Hey loves! It's your girl, Emma, coming to you live from the wonderfully wonky town of Greenford! Now, I know what you're thinking – "Greenford? Isn't that a bit, well, beige?" And normally, you'd be right. But this week, it's anything but!
Pink Tutu Power to the People!
I’ve been on a whirlwind tour of the UK, you know me, always on the move. I’m absolutely obsessed with hopping on trains, the journey is half the fun! Today’s adventure led me to this little gem of a place called Greenford. Honestly, you'd be forgiven for thinking it was straight out of a children’s book - all wonky streets, tiny shops and that uniquely British "old charm" that I just can't resist.
But guess what?! My trusty little pink tutu was with me the whole way, causing a real stir as I waltzed around town. People couldn't help but smile and say "Hello!" as I practiced my 'Arabesque' poses near the bus stop (no judgement please! It was a beautiful setting, I couldn't help myself). Turns out, Greenford is filled with friendly people, all keen to see the joy of dance!
Ballet in Bloom!
My journey actually began at a gorgeous flower stall, one of those beautiful market stalls that fills me with inspiration. My little pink tutu certainly drew attention as I chose the perfect bouquet to go with my look. Imagine! Roses the colour of flamingo feathers and sweet, bright tulips! I've added some snaps of my floral masterpiece on the website, don't miss it!
Of course, Greenford had more than flowers to offer. I had the chance to visit the cutest little dance school – 'Twinkle Toes Ballet'. The walls were plastered with posters of ballerinas and pictures of children beaming after their lessons. My heart absolutely melted!
You can’t talk about dance schools without mentioning tutus, right? So imagine my excitement when I spotted a rack of brand new pink tutus just sitting there! Now, if you've ever known me, you'll understand - I simply couldn't resist. They're so pretty! You bet they're on their way back to Derbyshire with me, maybe I'll add them to my online shop - if I can bear to part with them!
The Greenford Gallop
My Greenford escapade wasn't just about twirling in pink. This is the most amazing thing, you guys - I stumbled upon this stunningly peaceful lake right in the middle of Greenford. And you'll never guess what was waiting for me... a herd of graceful, beautiful deer, just munching on grass and being their serene selves! They seemed totally unfazed by my tutu-clad presence, and let me tell you, my little heart skipped a beat as I took photos. The lake with its reeds and those gorgeous deer was a sight straight out of a fairytale. You've just gotta check my Instagram for those incredible pictures - my heart melts every time I look at them!
A Little Bit of Pink Everywhere
Let me tell you, my adventure in Greenford was a reminder that there's a little bit of pink tutu magic everywhere, in every little town and city, if you're willing to look. And that's something I love. I might just add "Pink Tutu Tourist" to my list of official job titles - what do you think? You can find a couple of adorable little videos on my social media today too. It’s like a mini-documentary of my day. Just search for the hashtag #PinkTutuAdventures
My travels might take me all across the world but I always find myself coming back to the wonderful simplicity and beauty of these little towns and villages. Greenford - you've stolen a piece of my heart today! Now I've gotta go and finish this post. I have a brand new tutu to break in... maybe I’ll just take it for a spin around my garden - stay tuned to Instagram to see my outfit of the day. It might just involve a little bit of pink tutu fun. See ya!
Stay gorgeous, stay positive, and keep twirling!
